Customer Reviews
Critical and Straight to the Point Information
Wow! I'm really thankful for Doc Handal's podcasts. They are straightforward and informative. Unlike most, the podcasts are geared to the consumer and contain specific facts rather than fluff and generalities. I'll definitely be better equipped to deal with docs at future appointments.
Thumbs up for Metabolic Syndrome!
It's so refreshing to hear a doctor explain this complicated topic in terms anyone can understand. I hope more people listen to Doc Handal.
Risk vs Benefits of Imagining
As imagining procedures become more "popular" for diagnosis, patients need to be aware there is a possible risk associated with the increase in radiation. The Doc explains the pros and cons and gives suggested questions to ask before proceeding. Thought provoking!
